"TAPs."

Brave heart, good night, the evening shadows fail,
The cannon's roar; flint dies the bugle CALI
Lights out 1.-The sentry's tread scarce wakes the
hush,
Swift nows the river. murmuring as II nows,
Soft slumber-g1ving airs invite TO rest;
Pains hours OF anguish 1ed-tired eye-lids close
Good night.
The stars look down upon thy calm repose
As once on tented field, on battle eve;
No clash Of arms sad heralder OF woes,
Now rudely breaks the sleep Gods peace enfolds,-
Good night.
The silence speaks, and tells Of honor truth,
OF faithful serv ce,-generous victory
nation saved. For thee nation weeps,-
Clasp hands again, through tearsl our Leader
sleepsl
Good night.
Sergt Chas. F. Bocttger, formerly of the
Regular Army, played TAPS" so feelngly

from the eyes Of all the vast assembly at

on the subject and published in the Century

To PRESERVE NATURAL Flowers Dip
the flowers in melted paraffiue, withdraw
ing them quickly. The liquid should be
only just hot enough to maintain its fluid-

at time, held by the stocks and moved
about for an instant to get rid of air bub-
bles. Fresh cut flowers, free from moist
ure, make excellent specimens in this way.

FREE TRADK.-The reduction of internal
revenue aud the taking of of revenue
stamps from Proprietary Medicines, no
doubt has largely benefited the consumers,
as well as relieving the burden of home
manufacturers. Especially is this the case
with Green's August Flower and Boschee's
German Syrup, as the reduction OF thirty
six cents per dozen, has been added to in-
crease the size of the bottles containing
these remedies, thereby giving one.hfth
more medicine in the rs cent size The
August Flowerl for Dyspepsia and Liver
Complaint, and the German Syrup for
Cough and Lung troubles, have perhaps,
the largest sale of any medicines in the
world. The advantage Of increased size
of the bottles will be greatly appreciated
by the sick and afflicted, in every town and
village in civilized countries. Sample
bottles for 10 cents remain the same size.
